Poor? have you seen the first 2 quarters? Argentina was testing U.S.A. then in the 3rd Lamas just send Gino, Scola. Nocioni and Campasso to the bench to rest, there was no need to fight this.
@ the guy comparing himself to Michael Jordan not being arrogant. This is seriously the guy you want to make your argument with?

Manu needed rest? WTF?
I don't like fatass Melo, pussy ass Paul, frog boy Westbrook. I could give two s if they play for team USA, they act like dumbases. All you es justifying the way they act are probably the same s that were ing about Westbrook and harden during the playoffs.
I have no problem with the talking... it's part of the game, tbh
Plus at this point everyone knows who the es are... Scola, Melo, Westbrook acting like pussies? You don't say...
Argentina did well... but you need more than that to beat a team with Lebron and KD the way they're playing right now...
A lot of Spurs fans just have trouble rooting for players they root against all the time because they talk so much about them all the time.
Its fine - no one has to root for a team they don't want to root for. I don't really like Lebron. But I root for whomever has a Team USA jersey. If you don't want to, cool.
I just think its funny so many people have to come in and justify it with their arguments about how unclassy some guys playing basketball are. Its why you get trolled with the Spurs = class argument.
Well, I have never heard those comments or many others from him, tbh. When I see him he doesn't look arrogant but well if you want you can take other examples like Federer or Messi.
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
But just because they use a Team USA jersey you don't need to justify their every move. If they act like es, they act like es.
Plus there's no need to hate. KD is a class guy and a heck of a player. Lebron is a prima donna but he's right now at the top of his game.
Sure, Kobe looks done and Melo/Westchuck look smug while keeping the other team in the game, but outside the unintentional comedy, it doesn't matter when you have KD/Lebron beasting, tbh.
I haven't justified a damn thing. You on the other hand, apparently don't like the way they look.Make of that what you will.
I just don't like the whole "if you're good you're en led to be y" argument. Being good doesn't give someone a free pass to act like a jackass. And for the record, I'm talking in general, I don't see anything wrong with what Melo and Co. did today, tbh.
Phelps can be arrogant he's actually done something. And even then he's not jumping around like a bunch of porch monkeys. Kobe is the only one with the clout to act like an ass and he's not doing it.
Now I understand that stupid "woooow" comment you made earlier.
Are you implying a racist thing or something?
When I said "when I see him" I meant when I see him race. They way he acts and conducts himself doesn't seem y to me.
Yeah he definitely has non arrogant swimming. Celebrating right in front of his compe ors - the same thing many have ed about here - man - he NEVER did that.
I never called you a racist. I think you said something incredibly stupid. You said you thought you could tell if someone was arrogant by looking at them. That is just dumb.
I think 90% of athletes at a high level are arrogant as all because people who aren't extremely confident do not do well at high levels in compe ive sports.
Phelps = class
Co-sign
Argentina is simply too old (and unlike the Spurs they haven't successfully added youth).
I never said that, that's something you implied.
I could have explained myself better but I don't know how can you understand "I can tell if someone is arrogant by looking at them" from "when I see him he doesn't look arrogant".
And about the other thing, there's a difference between being arrogant and being confident. There are many examples about great sportsmen not being arrogant pricks.

Why are you guys acting like a bunch of sissies? Were you anti american s rooting against your own country or something? s.
Victories are not important, medals are important, thats the goal of Argentina NT, not to defeat U.S.A. Important players must be preserved for higher instances.
